Whew! It was my hardest debate ever! (Yes, even harder than that one against CJKAllstar, or that school uniform debate against Ajabi where I stuck to troll arguments, or even that debate against Bsh1!)

My god, it was tough, it was rough, it was doggone hard! But I managed to pull all the way through, researching here and there, everywhere to beat my opponent.

Reflection being PRO: Con, is a powerful, strong opponent. After all, he designated the framework, constructed all his powerful arguments, while I basically rebutted him. But as the debate went on, I not only rebutted con's arguments, I also built up my own persuasive case for the resolution. I think I won the debate.

Reflection being CON: Pro has way too many arguments supporting his side. But--I managed to twist his arguments against himself, and regardless of how eloquent his arguments are, and how fortified his defense is, I believe I managed to counter his arguments against himself for him to win. I believe I am the victor of the debate.

Well a con would be it's insanely hard XD

Even when you know what your opponent is thinking?

Hmmm, well, I guess it isn't that hard when you put it that way. But I have to drop arguments ahead of time because I know it'll come to my lost. For example, within civil unions, I could have argued that the majority argument clashes with the gays' agreement argument; but then my "opponent" could have just said that obviously gays would support marriage in a majority; only they support marriage more.

BTW, who do you think won? I think PRO won. Although Con had some very twisting arguments, especially at the end!

I think it's really weird and hilarious at the same time when I see arguments like "my opponent dropped this argument" or "my opponent concedes this argument" when your opponent is you. I can see some value in this exercise though because it forces you to go beyond what you would already know/argue since you already know what you know.

well. not really...I mean BSH1 was getting tired of debating gay marriage. Bookie didn't have time. Me and my sister have the same IP address so we can't debate on the topic. And I finally get to develop a good point of view without losing elo!

I think Pro won as well, and Con put up a solid fight.

Hmmm...what about now? Con put the burden of proof on pro and he accepted... that should give con some type of advantage.
